Forums » Smalltalk » Insearch of character ideas

Hey all, Lucian here. I got a bit of a block going on and would like some inspiration. I'd like to make some new characters using neutral/non-evil character archetypes. If you've looked at my current list of OCs, I generally play the shadowy type or someone with a not-so-clean past. I just recently added a rookie adventurer, but I want to find something new that's not so broody to expand my emotional range, so to speak.

Feel free to post any ideas you have, and I'll give my honest opinion.

Yours,
Lucian.

You could just use the classics: a knight in search of glory, a rogue in search of power, a mage in search of knowledge... Another concept is revenge: although most characters (in fictions of all kind) who seek it are evil, those who struggle for fairness through revenge could make neutral or chaotic good characters. Or you could make a character which gains power from good (paladins) but to be honest I think that's quite one-sided and boring.
